I have been writing poetry, fiction and short stories for many years and have completed a book of poems. I also enjoy comedy writing.
Voodoo Doll
I have a voodoo doll that I can make do stuff.
If I slice it with a razor it will make your skin cut.
If I spin its head around your neck will break.
If I shake it rapidly it will make where you stand quake.
If I bend a finger on my voodoo doll you will feel that same pain.
If I pour water on my doll, you will get rain.
If I don’t want you to see anymore I will pluck its button eyes out.
If I want you to shut up I will stitch close its mouth.
I can make you dance like an idiot if I dangle my doll on strings
I can make your nerves hurt if I stick it with pins
If I need you to fall in love with me I will kiss the voodoo doll
But if I roll it you will slip and break your hip when you fall
But wait, there is much more I can do
If I light the doll on fire it will burn, but so will you.
My voodoo doll can represent anyone I chose
A lawyer, a doctor, a president or a musician singing the blues.
So before you cross me just remember this
I am the powerful shaman whom will make you seize to exist.

It sounds like interacting with this doll will give you some negative event. Is the voodoo doll capable of doing anything good? This poem is a bit of fun.
Eric Dierker from Spring Valley, CA. U.S.A. on February 28, 2020:
Life is going along just fine and then boom a heart attack. Well now I know who to blame. Just wondering, can you take out some stuffing so I can lose these last 10 pounds.
John Hansen from Gondwana Land on February 28, 2020:
Interact your voodoo doll? Interesting, I’ll make sure I don’t cross you.
